We all miss Jean, she touched so many of our lives. She was a wonderful person full of life, great neighbor, very determined to do everything on her own and very loving. She had such a great memory that she never forget my son's birthdays. I had only mentioned it to her once and she never forgot. She met him when he was a newborn and she was the sweetest person that I could remember. We will always remember her, she is in a better place now and at peace! You are all in my thought and prayers. Blessing, Brisa Nuño (neighbor)
